The news of the draw between the Thunder and the Hornets not only shocked the entire league, but surprised all basketball fans with the performance of the Hornets.

Thunder fans: Ah!ah!ah!So heartbroken and miss General Manager Presti!
Thunder fans: Whenever Presti led the Hornets to play some amazing games, I thought about what would happen if Presti still coached the Thunder,

Thunder fans: Look at the current coach and look at Presti, how can there be such a big gap!
Thunder fans: General Manager Presti, come back!
........................

Hornets fans: Wow, what happened, we tied the Thunder!
Hornets fans: Haha, thank you Thunder boss Clayton for giving us Presti!
Hornets fans: At first, I was not satisfied with Presti trading Paul, but now I can only say, I support Presti no matter what you do!
Hornets fans: draw with the defending champion, who else can win the defending champion twice without a full-name lineup?
Hornets fans: what else to say, blow on Presti, just blow it up!

………………

Lakers fans: Although "Zen Master" is amazing, I want Presti to coach us now!
Lakers fans: @Presti, if you coach the Lakers, we can forget about your comeback!
Other fans: Look at what a coach is, this is the coach!

Other fans: You should say that this is the team owner, who can do everything from drafting, training, and coaching!
……

At this time, the subject of discussion, Presti, is being bombarded by phone calls!
"Presti, are you interested in joining our team, we will give you the highest salary!"

"Presti, come to our team and be a hero in another place!"

"Presti, come to our team, we promise you, you have absolute power"

"Presti, come to our team, we can consider giving you one percent of the shares,"

Presti refused one by one, don't they know that I am the boss of the Hornets?Have you ever seen a team owner serve another team?Presti was a little speechless,
As a result, just as she was about to take a sip of water, Anjali called.
As soon as the phone was connected, before Anjali spoke, Presti said directly: "If you want me to go to the king, then don't say it."

"Ah? How did you know I was going to talk about this!" Anjali said in surprise,
Then the conversation turned and continued: "What do you mean don't talk, didn't you promise me to come and help father?"

"Pfft! When did I say that?" Presti spit out thirsty saliva before swallowing it.
"I don't care, you just said it!" Anjali said coquettishly.

"What about the Hornets, the Hornets will be your team in the future, haha," Presti said wittily.

"Yes." Anjali said shyly,
After a while, Anjali still didn't speak, and Presti said, "Why do you want to say something else, I'm going to sleep, I'm a little tired."

"Don't hang up, there's something else to do," Anjali said quickly when she heard that Presti was going to hang up.

"Also, let's talk about it." Presti yawned.

"That, that..." Anjali suddenly became shy.

"Don't, I'm not used to you like this," Presti smiled. Anjali was a very small girl in front of him, and most of them were careless. It was the first time she was so shy.

"Go to hell" Anjali's true nature was instantly revealed when she heard Presti's words.

"Haha, this is you, come on, don't tell me I'm really asleep," Presti yawned again.

Anjali on the other end of the phone broke her heart: "Father told me that if the king enters the playoffs according to your operation, he will agree to marry you,"

"Pfft!" Presti spurted out the water he just drank, and then said in surprise, "Really?"

"Yeah" Anjali said shyly

"Haha, okay, I'll ask for a surprise when the game is over," Presti said excitedly.

"Well, then you rest, I'll hang up first." Anjali immediately hung up the phone after finishing speaking, and put her hand on her chest: "I'm actually shy, huh, surprise? I heard "begging"" Anjali began to look forward to that day.

……

Early the next morning, Presti and the team boarded the plane to Oklahoma with dark circles under his eyes, but the players and assistants still laughed at him.
After getting off the plane and returning to the hotel to pack up, I immediately went to training,
The battle of Tianwang Mountain is the most important!

On May 5th, the battle of Tianwangshan between the Hornets and the Thunder began!This game attracted almost all fans of the other teams except the Mavericks and Spurs. As for the reason, apart from the wonderful accident itself, the main reason is uncertainty, while other games are almost one-sided.

Presti kept encouraging the players before the game, telling them to treat the shouting on the scene as cheering for themselves and not to put too much pressure on them, but it is clear that many of the Hornets' players are rookies or have not played in the playoffs, and they cannot do it at all.

At the beginning of the first quarter, Jordan Jr. scored through the pick-and-roll and dunked Whiteside. Durant hit two points on the spot, Ibaka dunked, Westbrook made a layup from Jeremy Lin, and the Thunder started 8-0.

Presti immediately called a timeout!After a brief adjustment,
David West teamed up with Paul George to help the team gradually narrow the point difference. Bradley hit a three-pointer, and the Hornets narrowed the point difference to 4 points.

But immediately after Durant made another three-pointer, Westbrook made a layup to stabilize the situation. At the last moment, David West made a quick turn and hit the rebound. At the end of the first quarter, the Thunder led the Hornets 29-24
In the second quarter, the Hornets patiently passed the ball at the beginning and easily got a shooting opportunity. Okafor III flew and shot the ball in with one arm. Gordon made a mid-range jumper and the Hornets fell behind 28-29.

The Thunder called out a timeout!

After the timeout, Harden hit a three-pointer at the top of the arc, and then Paul George missed under Durant's interference. Westbrook got the ball and rushed to the frontcourt to follow up with Durant. Durant made another three-pointer!The score was drawn again!

After that, Gordon started the superstar singles, constantly attacking the inside, causing foul free throws, and then suddenly scored to Jason Smith. Jason Smith made a three-pointer from the bottom corner, but Westbrook hit a three-pointer at the buzzer in the final attack. At the end of the half, the Thunder led the Nets 51-44.

The tactics came out, there were many vacancies on the field, but they missed the shot, Presti still encouraged the players during the halftime break!

And this encouragement also played a role. At the beginning of the second half, Whiteside made a supplementary dunk! , Immediately after Belinelli hit a three-pointer from the outside, the Hornets trailed by 2 points!
But today, because it is the Thunder's home court, the Thunder's players are all bursting with confidence and momentum!Durant took the ball to the top of the arc and made a direct hit!

At the end of this quarter, Ibaka's inside defense blocked Gordon's layup!

Westbrook who took the ball gave it to Durant again,

Durant throws again at the top of the arc!
not in,

but!

Little Jordan flew out!

Catch the ball and dunk!

The score returned to 7 points again!
Everything on the court indicated that the Thunder would win the game!
